With the cost of gas going up, and my commute being what it is. I'm toying with the idea of getting a streetbike to get back and fourth to work during the dry months. Not only would I enjoy the benifits of using 1/4 the amount of gas. But I would also get to use the carpool lanes:D

Thinking of either a Vulcan 800 or a Shadow A.C.E. 750
Anyone have an objective opinion on either of these?

And just to make it a more interesting thread..... which do you prefer, cruisers or sportbikes? And why?

sportbikes look like more fun for the younger aged & the older people need goldwings

Got nothin' to do with age. It's whatever you're into. You wanna smell the roses and take in the view, and have a smooth, cushy ride? Get a cruiser. But if you ride the highways to tame the highways, and relly get into the whole acceleration/ handling thang like me and the rest of my old coot friends, get a sportbike. I'll personally never own a cruiser probably.
